Increased Methylation of Interleukin 6 Gene Is Associated with Obesity in Korean Women

28 Apr 2015

Abstract excerpt

Obesity is the fifth leading risk for death globally, and a significant challenge to global health. It is a common, complex, non-malignant disease and develops due to interactions between the genes and the environment. DNA methylation can act as a downstream effector of environmental signals; analysis of this process therefore holds substantial promise for identifying mechanisms through which genetic and...
